      Hi,

      I’m totally new to Suunto and received my Suunto Run only yesterday. It’s my first running watch, coming from a hybrid Withings ScanWatch. Until now I’m really impressed.

      So I activated notifications on the watch. Since I use a company iPhone (also for private stuff), this leads to a lot of notifications from Outlook and Teams that I want so see on my phone but not on my watch. I miss the feature to limit the apps that I want to receive notifications from in the Suunto app. E.g. limit this to GMail and messengers like WhatsApp.

      Does such a feature exist and I’m just to dumb to find it?

      Regards
      Simon

        @SimonDe Hi Simon, to prevent notifications from appearing on your watch, go to Settings > Notifications and, for each app, disable Notification Center and enable Banners instead.

          Thanks Milan, I’ll give it a try. But it sounds like a workaround if this can only be achieved with playing around with iOS’ notification settings.

            @SimonDe iOS has its limits or better say a different approach than Android, there you can do lots more e.g. reject a call with a predefined message, mark a task as done, etc. Suunto can do only what Apple allows them.

              But Withings gives the user the possibility to select which app notifications he/she wants to see on the watch. They even implemented it as an empty white list if I remember correctly. So I had to explicitly select the apps whose notifications should be forwarded to the watch.
              I would assume Suunto could implement it the same way.
              If a ablcklist or whitelist approach is used is probably something you could debate on, but filtering out messages on iOS seems to be possible.

                I do not think there is much of/any option to filter notificationswith iOS… on or off. But I could be wrong.
